Great place
This was a very comfortable and clean place. Good location and I loved the facilities. The house was very equipped with supplies. The location was good but I wish there were a more places to fish in walking distance. The beds were very comfy and soft. We really enjoyed our stay! I would definitely stay here again.

Comfortable Little House
Everything about this little house was perfect. We were exploring Rockport (next time we will bring our boat as there is great parking for it). Just down the road from great restaurants and you can actually see the ocean from the porch while having coffee in the morning. Will definitely be back.

The house was beautiful , the decor was inviting and colors relaxing. The screened in porch allowed us to leave front door open to catch the sea breeze Kitchen has everything needed to cook or bake a meal. I would rate this better than a 5 star hotel.

Nice for the family
We enjoyed our stay. Everything went smoothly until we noticed there were no sheets for the sofa bed. But, I have to say once we called customer service,those sheets were brought to us in no time. The overall cleanliness is good. This was my first time to Rockport and my family and I enjoyed the closeness to the beach. You definitely have to drive or bike. A walk down to the piers was nice with kiddos, but I found it odd that the smell was so bad. Thank you for a good family gathering in a nice cozy place!!!

Coastal Getaway
We needed a getaway and this house did the trick! It was very clean and comfortable. The location was great, two blocks from a nice walk by the water and one mile from the Heritage District for some great shopping. It was also good to see that many restaurants are still open for business. Thanks for a wonderful time.
